Sinopsis
The Works of the Duke of Argyll is a collection of three essays: The Reign of Law, The Unity of Nature, and Primeval Man. The author, George Douglas Campbell, the Duke of Argyll, was a Scottish nobleman and politician who was also a prominent writer and philosopher. In The Reign of Law, he argues that the universe is governed by laws that are consistent and universal, and that this idea has important implications for our understanding of the natural world and our place in it. In The Unity of Nature, he explores the idea that all living things are interconnected and that the study of nature can help us better understand our own existence. Finally, in Primeval Man, he delves into the origins of human civilization and the evolution of human society. The book was originally published in 1884 and remains a classic work of philosophical and scientific inquiry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

In this Edition no alteration has been made involving any change of principle or opinion. Here and there words have been added or removed according as individual passages appear to have been misunderstood. Throughout some of the chapters substantial additions have been made in reply, direct or indirect, to my principal opponents, whilst discussions, more detailed than were suitable for the text, have been committed to Notes at the end of the volume. These additions and Notes have reference chiefly to the following articles which appeared in review of the Reign of Law :i st. An A rticle, by Mr. Alfred R. Wallace, in the Quarterly Journal of Science, for October, 1867. This article is in defence and illustration of Mr. Darwin s Theory on the Origin of Spe cies.
